Sounds great - Definately in, although I am away with work alot I'll be there for everything I can be! We could also incorporate an SAUSA shirt/sticker into the membership price? I'd be willing to pay $50 - $60 bucks for the year if this was the case - any others keen?

Here here! A standard polo or T would work! and possibly a common sticker! likewise with the payment $50-$60 would be no skin off my nose!

Obviously Cubes i'd put my hand up to help as much as i can.......

Guys and gals, lets not talk dollars, or what free gift you should get (how about some steak knifes? :wave:).

It's way too early in the game for that, I'm certain what ever price that's arrived at will be the minimum necessary amount, for the moment lets see if we can get the wheels rolling in earnest first.

Cubes

If you get it all off the ground I would be interested too.

Like evil34 I was also on the committee of SVD, and I still have a lot of the paperwork from the club, there may be some information in there they could be helpful to you. If you think it could help you just send me a PM

Best advice would be to run about 6 months of events and meetings before you get too serious just make sure that the interest is there. You don’t want to have meetings if only the committee is turning up.

whats the likely hood we can get the basics sorted like CAMS affiliation and basically thats it and get the core of SAU in and then sort out sponsorship and stuff like that for our 2nd year of running

ive already spoken with a trader and he is happy to sponsor SAU but is doesn't suit all people but thats going to be the case for different sponsors depending on where there located, and this sponsor ship was for something else but i know he means all things like this also

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
